Categories     Chicken

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 pound Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled, cut into 3/4-inch-wide wedges
8 large skinless chicken thighs with bones
4 tablespoons (or more) fresh lime juice, divided
2/3 cup fresh orange juice
4 tablespoons chili powder
2 tablespoon paprika
2 tablespoon smoked paprika
4 teaspoons finely grated orange peel
2 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon salt
4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1.5 cup low-salt chicken broth
2 tablespoons coarsely chopped fresh cilantro, divided
1 tablespoon coarsely chopped fresh parsley
50 olives (preferably mixed colors and sizes)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F. Cook potatoes in large saucepan of lightly salted water until almost tender, about 7 minutes. Drain. Meanwhile, brown chicken thighs then place on large heavy-duty rimmed baking sheet. Sprinkle chicken generously with salt; drizzle with 1 tablespoon lime juice and set aside. Whisk 1 tablespoon lime juice, orange juice, chili powder, both paprikas, grated orange peel, ground cumin, dried oregano, and 1/2 teaspoon salt in small bowl. Rub chili mixture all over chicken. Arrange potato wedges on baking sheet, nestling around chicken. Drizzle olive oil over chicken and potatoes. Bake chicken and potatoes 20 minutes. Increase oven temperature to 425°F. Turn chicken and potato wedges; spoon juices over. Bake 10 minutes longer. Add chicken broth, 1 tablespoon chopped cilantro, and chopped parsley, stirring to scrape up any chili bits at bottom of baking sheet. Turn chicken over. Bake until chicken is cooked through and beginning to brown in spots, about 10 minutes longer. Carefully transfer chicken and potatoes to platter, keeping potatoes intact. Place baking sheet over 2 stovetop burners. Boil sauce until reduced to 1 cup, about 3 minutes. Mix in olives. Season sauce to taste with salt and pepper and additional lime juice, if desired. Pour sauce over chicken and potatoes; top with remaining tablespoon cilantro and serve.

I'm not a big fan of citrus, so I used lemon juice instead of orange juice. It was still very good.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I added some vegetables to the sauce and it was delicious.

I followed the recipe exactly, but the chicken came out dry. Not sure what I did wrong.
